Ozone generators: water, air and maintenance
Ozone generators for water and air: use, installation, spare parts and maintenance
Ozone generators are devices used to produce ozone for specific water, air and surface treatment applications. In water treatment, they can be used in technical and professional systems, always with correct design, dosing control, material compatibility and proper safety conditions.

How an ozone generator works
Ozone production
The generator produces ozone from oxygen present in air or from a dedicated oxygen source. Ozone must then be managed and dosed in a controlled way according to the application.

Contact with water or air
In water applications, ozone is normally mixed through injection, diffusion or contact systems. In air applications, treatment must be performed respecting time, volume and environmental safety conditions.

Dosing control
Correct performance depends on concentration, contact time, water or air quality, temperature, flow rate and system characteristics.

Professional applications
In professional use, ozone can be integrated into technical systems and procedures, but it must be evaluated according to application type, safety and applicable regulations.

What to check before choosing
Final application
Selection changes depending on whether the generator must work on water, air, surfaces, technical systems or professional applications. Each use requires proper sizing and accessories.

Flow rate and volume to treat
For water, flow rate, contact time and mixing system must be evaluated. For air, room volume, treatment duration and safety conditions must be considered.

Compatible materials
Ozone can be aggressive toward some materials. Tubes, fittings, gaskets, valves and components must be compatible with the intended application.

Maintenance and spare parts
Cleaning and periodic check
The generator should be checked periodically to verify operation, ventilation, connections, tubing, diffusers and installed accessories.

Diffusers and accessories
In water applications, diffusers, injectors, check valves, tubes and fittings must be checked and replaced when worn or no longer efficient.

Safe use
Ozone must be used only according to the manufacturer's instructions and with proper precautions. Installation must avoid uncontrolled dispersion and ensure safe use.

Helpful tip:
An ozone generator must be selected starting from the real application. Declared power alone is not enough: flow rate, volume to treat, contact time, mixing system, safety and material compatibility must all be considered.
